Comparison with the osteoconductivity and bone-bonding ability of the iodine supported titanium, titanium with porous oxide layer and the titanium alloy in the rabbit model

Adhesion and Colonisation of Microorganisms on Porous TiO2 and TiO2-Silver Biomaterials

“…Studies on other coatings and their properties, such as silver coatings are also underway. (Wilding et al, 2016;Eto et al, 2016;Taga et al, 2018). Our research showed that biomaterials containing silver have antibacterial properties both against Gr+ and Gr-bacteria when compared to biomaterials without silver particles.…”

Evaluation of topographical and chemical modified TiAl6V4 implant surfaces in a weight‐bearing intramedullary femur model in rabbit

“…On the other hand, the exact implant position is favorable compared to significant variation in the position after transverse implantation into the metaphyseal portion of the distal femur (Dean et al, ). Recommendations of the implant size (diameter × length) in the intramedullary distal rabbit femur vary between 5 × 25 mm (Jinno et al, ; Taga et al, ) and 4.5 × 25 mm (Guo et al, ); our own preliminary experiments with specimens of 4, 4.5, and 5 mm diameter showed the best result concerning press fit implantation for all three sample types (Table ) with 4.5 mm. Although other groups reported experiments on female animals, we used male animals, as in our opinion they should be preferred to exclude variations resulting from hormonal cycle among female animals which can affect the bone metabolism (de Almeida et al, ; Reigstad et al, ; Taga et al, ).…”

“…All animals were cared for according to the European guidelines for the care and use of laboratory animals (Directive 24.11.1986, 86/609/CEE). Three implant types were tested in a well‐characterized rabbit osseointegration model: MiPo (Group 1), MiPo‐CaP (Group 2), and MiPo‐TiCaP (Group 3) (Jinno, Davy, & Goldberg, ; Stewart, Welter, & Goldberg, ; Taga et al, ). The implants had a rod‐like shape with 4.5 mm in diameter and 25 mm in length and were produced by Waldemar LINK GmbH und Co.KG.…”

“…On the other hand, the exact implant position is favorable compared to significant variation in the position after transverse implantation into the metaphyseal portion of the distal femur (Dean et al, 1995). Recommendations of the implant size (diameter × length) in the intramedullary distal rabbit femur vary between 5 × 25 mm (Jinno et al, 2002;Taga et al, 2018) and 4.5 × 25 mm (Guo et al, 2013); our own preliminary experiments with specimens of 4, 4.5, and 5 mm diameter showed the best result concerning press fit implantation for all three sample types ( Reigstad et al, 2007;Taga et al, 2018).…”

Design a novel integrated screw for minimally invasive atlantoaxial anterior transarticular screw fixation: a finite element analysis

“…Both ends of the screw contain a threaded structure, and the middle part contains a porous metal structure. The design of the porous metal structure can increase cell adhesion and promote cell differentiation, and the porous metal structure can also facilitate bone ingrowth so that bone fusion can be completed without the implantation of autologous or allogeneic bone, and related complications in bone harvesting area can be reduced [11,47,48]. The pore size of the porous metal is 150 μm.…”
